Spinach tortilla and black beans

Spinach Tortilla:  Beat 5 large eggs.  Add a minced shallot (I used 3 green onions.  Add 5 oz spinach and mix well.  Salt and pepper to taste.  Cook 10 minutes over med heat, flip and cook another 3-4 minutes.  Let cool 5 minutes.

Soak black beans overnight.  Drain and simmer with one leek, tomato, garlic clove, onion, carrot, 1/2 tsp smoked paprika, 1 bay leaf, and enough water to cover by 2 inches until beans are tender.  Then heat 2 tbsp olive oil and saute 1 minced garlic clove.  Add vegetables from beans.  Puree vegetables, then stir into beans.  ( in retrospect, I would have trimmed the onions and tomatoes prior to putting them in the pot and I think I would have doubled or even tripled the paprika)  Salt and pepper to taste.  Served with cod and a salad.
